No holes may be made or holding devices screwed into the case, which may weaken or endanger the
structure after installation. All main bolts on the case housing of the driver must be tightened to
10.8–12.5 ft-lbs. dry (14.6–17 n-m dry).
Wiring may be run in threaded rigid or approved standard electrical flexible conduit with five full threads
engaged. Explosion-proof conduit boxes, junctions, and fittings are of approved type and usually contain
